Default Old Powerboat Magazines (1971-1988) and more

My late father kept all his old Powerboat Magazine(s). trying to get rid of some clutter, plus Corvette News magazine(s) from August 1971 -1976.

The Powerboats Magazines and Corvette News are in good shape.

I am interested, as of late we started to hand them out to the local kids that are in the hospitals and in the waiting rooms. I like the idea of keep boating alive and hopefully future kids get well plus get into boating especially powerboating in their future. For Christmas we handed out over 500 boat, motorcycle & hotrod magazines to the local hospitals. Also anyone else that has boating magazines let me know. thanks John

Stephen thank you for the offer and time. I would think that you would want at least your shipping costs covered. I have no idea how much any of that would be.

A rough guess would be 25 - 30 bucks. I am collecting magazines again to pass out but it is hard to get large volumes donated or bought at a cheaply price to make it worth my time plus not a huge expense.

I look at it as they were printed to be look at & read forever so I try to make a difference and donate them instead of getting thown in the trash.

Forgot I think you can send these media mail for a cheaper cost on your end.

Just found years 1997 through 2005, in perfect condition, in my mother's house, in chronological order.

The magazines will not be thrown away. Either they will be sold or they will be kept, or I will let my nieces and nephews (my brothers has four children of school age) have an E-Bay project and learn how to market and sell used items.

If the 1997-2005 magazines do not sell, I will help your charity. It is a good thing you are doing, I do commend you for your help to the hospitalized children.
